Controversy Erupts Over Pro-Life Organizations in Maternal Clinics: Government Seeks Confidence Vote

The Departments, in organizing the services of the clinics, “can also make use, without new or greater responsibilities on public finances, from the involvement of third sector organizations that have accredited experience in support maternal”. This is what is provided in an amendment to the Pnrr order on which the government has placed its confidence.

The text, first signed by Lorenzo Malagola from FdI, was sent to the Budget Commission and was stigmatized by the opposition: the participation of “pro-life associations” in the advisory centers ” represents another crime against women’s rights and self-determination “, it is “disgraceful”, the M5s and Pd point the finger.

The government today asked the Chamber for a vote of confidence on the order to end the implementation of the Pnrr. An announcement about a vote of confidence is expected tomorrow after midday, and the call will start at 2pm. However, no agreement has yet been found on the final vote on the measure.

At the same time, there is a dispute about advisers. The first to raise the question were the representatives of the M5s in the Social Affairs commissions of the Chamber and the Senate: “We live in a country where the right to ban- birth and termination of pregnancy already under attack, in which it is already difficult. to access the practice, in which women have to travel outside the province or even outside the region to have an abortion – the protest – And while other countries are taking a- including the protection of the right to terminate a pregnancy in the Constitution, Italy chooses to take a step back We will continue to oppose this unclear policy of the Meloni government.”

Soon the Democratic Party will also raise its voice, with its secretary Elly Schlein talking about a “serious attack on women’s freedom” which “we will fight against”. For Silvia Roggiani and Marco Furfaro (party welfare manager) “this government continues its battle against women and their rights and does so by attacking law 194 and right to terminate a pregnancy. It is shameful, together with women’s societies, to prevent the right from this umpteenth attack on women’s rights”.

In the past, the centrally-led Piedmont had also decided to accommodate pro-life associations in clinics, creating similar controversies. In Lazio, a region led by Francesco Rocca (near FdI), the majority and the opposition had clashed to ban counseling centers from the management of mothers’ bonuses and, at the same time , about the decision to focus on family centers. and life support centers.

Schlein: ‘We will strongly resist the blitz against law 194’

“We will strongly oppose” the amendment to the Pnrr for the green light for pro-life associations in clinics. The secretary of the Democratic Party Elly Schlein explained this on the sidelines of a book presentation dedicated to Giacomo Matteotti in Milan “I remember a letter during Giorgia Meloni’s election campaign that said ‘don’t worry, we won’t touch the right to abortion’. A right that was defined a few days ago by the European Parliament basic and we are very happy with this. It is obvious that Giorgia Meloni thinks otherwise – she continues -. It does not surprise us but it surprises us. touch that law.”

“There’s a huge attack going on on women’s freedom to choose about their own bodies,” Schlein said. “We expected it to be from this right that reigns everywhere trying to to undermine the implementation of 194 and limit the right of those who seek to have access to a voluntary termination of pregnancy – he adds inside the book presentation on Giacomo Matteotti in Milan – Yes blitz of the right in Parliament with this very bad change, which wants to bring anti-abortion associations into the clinics, psychologically and in an unacceptable violent way, to influence women who seek voluntary termination of pregnancy.
